#DogWalkingGeology Fabulous morning on frosty Ardalanish beach in Mull. Spud enjoying this lovely clean calc-silicate outcrop, with pink garnets, dark hornblende, and white plagioclase and quartz. #Moine #Metamorphic #AmphiboliteFacies

More #DogWalkingGeology from this afternoon, The staining on these rocks is not ideal, but underneath it all is some pretty fabulous boundinage of meta-quartzites in more mica-rich metasediments, Lobhta Mor, #IsleOfMull #Sausages #SpudTheGeoDog is just out of site of this view.

#DogWalkingGeology Spud on the rocks at the intrigiungly-named Lobhta Mor, on the south coast of Mull. Might mean the big stench, or putrefaction? Air very fresh and bracing. Steeply-dipping Moine meta-sandstones are main geo-thing in this view.
